April Highlights

Impulsive Mars has been moving closer to serious Saturn since early March and joins him tonight at 22° Aquarius. Headstrong Mars will fight for justice in this Air sign. The potential for leadership is strong, with a penchant for rebelliousness. There is a need to filter language especially with family and co-workers, so as not to alienate those you hope to assist in the long run.

It's a good thing Saturn is the ancient ruler of this Fixed sign and can offer self-discipline as an antidote for any run-away energies. These two archetypes can work together to effect change within groups and organizations, with Mars adding the fire and bravery and Saturn the hard work and restraint when necessary.

They bring an original, inventive, pioneering spirit to science, technology, politics and aeronautics, as well as the perseverance to find new methods of problem solving. Forward-thinking inroads may surface along with discoveries arising from years of hard work and research.

Venus moves into Pisces tomorrow, April 5th after a month long journey through Aquarius, where she put her own needs on hold, allowing logic and reasoning to guide her while gathering resources for the greater good. In Pisces, her expression is more emotionally based, exhibiting creative and compassionate tendencies that attract spiritual well being and happiness.

This is just the beginning of the month with many varied and possible changes to come, including more subtle energies and a potential for either enlightenment or confusion a s Jupiter and Neptune align on the 12th. But that's a dream for another night.
